Muscidae or Anthomyiidae female. Very strong crossed bristles on frons, so probably Anthomyiidae, but there are muscids with strong crossed bristles too, so that could be wrong. The dark patches on the facial orbits are familiar, but I can't remember from where, so I hope that Kahis comes on-line soon and clears everything up! Pfft

I can only agree with Tony: a female anthomyid.
